[Electronics-talk] Video Games

Hi, Can any of those games be played with other users? I am looking for a 
game that I can play with other friends or even people across the world. I 
wish words with friends was accessible but unfortunately, it is not. I like 
the idea of playing with people I may not know.

But the third time you are on your own, because that is the way the world 
is.

You can find recommendations for accessible games at www.applevis.com

Some of the games I play on iPad are AudioRun, Moxie, Blind Memory, Moose, 7 
Words, Mind Sweeper, Stem Stumper Lite, Tic Tac Free, Word Quest.

Hope this helps.
